Summary

Steffi Graf won the 1984 Olympic demonstration singles title when she was only 15 years old. She achieved the #1 world ranking in 1987, and in 1988, became the fifth woman to win the Grand Slam of tennis – Australia, French, Wimbledon, and US titles in one year. When she won the Olympic gold medal, easily defeating Argentina's Gabriela Sabatini in the final, 6-3, 6-3, it was called the Golden Slam, never before achieved. Graf's career eventually had some tennis experts considering her the greatest woman player ever, as she won 22 Grand Slam singles titles – 4 Australian, 6 French, 7 Wimbledon, and 5 US – and 107 career professional titles. She later married fellow Olympic gold medalist, Andre Agassi.
